Tuba Skinny v. 2 of Last Set @ Jazz aux Sources, Châtel-Guyon, France, May 21st, 2018

[@williamfulgham2010]

Every time I hear a more recent recording of Tuba Skinny, they just keep getting better. They have really gotten their total act together with their French tour, and now they're gelling better than they ever have in 10 years since Shaye Cohn founded the group. This band is really on a roll and destined for world famous status.

thanks for the video. REALLY!

[@navretvet]

Thank God Shay found that horn. Maybe Grandpa guided her to it because the girl is absolutely wonderful on it and I'm convinced she plays with a "Divine" inspiration. The world of music has gotten better since these folks got together. I've been listening to them four four days straight and can't seem to get enough, LORD help me!

[@peterosborn6056]

I couldn't agree more!

[@stevegrooms1142]

navretvet the horn Shaye plays in this video is a very old Yamaha that came to her through Ben Polcer, a friend she met early in her New Orleans days. Ben's father, Ed Polcer, played that horn during his successful career, a career that included performing in Benny Goodman's small group. That was her only cornet for many years. Since November of 2019 she has played a King Master cornet.

It is great to hear Tuba Skinny together again, happy and on top form. Individually they are great and totally-dedicated musicians. But collectively they are in a different place again. Perhaps the greatest blues and traditional jazz band ever. I wonder if even they know how special they have become.

[@johnv8355]

I found Tuba Skinny when I looked up Zydeco music just a couple of days ago. I'm in my 50s, and thanks to Cohn and the rest of the band, which plays the happiest music I've ever heard, I want to learn how to play the cornet! Instead of buying myself another gun for Father's Day, I'm going to get a cornet, and TS CDs and vinyl records for when I cook outside on the grill, and for when I make breakfast, and for when I make wine spritzers for my wife... for any occasion that calls for a good mood and general all-around happiness! THANK YOU, TUBA SKINNY, for bringing so much joy to an often tumultuous world!!!!!

[@francistuckermanns]

Goosebumps !

[@jeffreymcneal1507]

Oh, that dobro. Coronet with a toilet plunger. Clarinet diving in and out, up and down, trombone howling, banjo twanging, the washboard holding the pace, tuba gently hooting, the magnificent Erika Lewis caressing that bass drum, stealing the show, as always.

steve hammond, yes where? If you live in Europe, here is your chance, according to their schedule, Tuba Skinny will be touring Europe in July. This far Turkey, Austria and France will be graced by their appearance. Wish we could make it to both Austria and France. France seems to be their favourite scene; you can tell by their eyes, smiles, head and body movements and speech, as well how good they perform. As written earlier, never ever have you seen so many smiles ... as in Andernos-les-Bains. If you get a front seat or standing real close, you are up for a treat! tubaskinny.com/schedule

A very very talented lady. Wonderful pianist and pretty good on the fiddle, double bass , accordion, trombone, pocket trumpet ,spoons and of course one the worlds top cornet players. She’s the leader of the band, watch for signals. Oh and she composes some wonderful melodies ; check out Deep Bayou Moan, as well providing the artwork for the cds and albums! As well as....well you get the idea!!!

[@mrfester42]

@@colinbundred2412 Yeah! She's got it all. She makes me feel a bit dreamy when I see her. Especially when she's playing because I've been a music junkie my whole life. I mean... to find a gal who loves what you love and has that creative sensibility. It would be a dream come true and there she is. I'm a little bit of a musician myself but not anywhere near as good as she is but that's just fine with me. I would play second fiddle to Shay any day and love it. The lyrics to an old song always come to mind when I see her. "Someone told me there's a girl out there With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair." "To find a queen without a king They say she plays guitar and cries and sings . Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn Tryin' to find a woman who's never, never, never been born." Well, she has been born and there she is. I just love to see that gal do what she loves so much. She just looks so content and like she's just where she oughta be and THAT is beautiful as hell. I know, I know! It's probably just a pipe dream but a guy can dream... can't he?

Great vocal by Erika on "Squeeze Me," (beg. c.20:50)...especially on the chorus, where she really lays it down, obviously feeling and enjoying every note! This is one of her best efforts that I've heard on YT, and one of my favorites by anybody of this tune, bringing new life to an old jazz standard.

[@stevegrooms1142]

Excellent comment. I've wondered if Shaye's "focus on the song" came from her classical music background. She treats each song with great respect. I think her heavy use of mutes is best understood as her way of fitting in with her band, what you call her "ensemble work."

[@kennyb4871]

Every time I watch, I am absolutely marveled at how well Shaye orchestrate's while playing. Very very few can do it at this level. Also, I've seen a few different mixtures of this band, I apologize for not knowing anybody but the ladies. I recognize the Trombonist as being prominent on most videos, as well as the clarinet player (Sax? Pretty sure it;s a clarinet...but I'm far from a musical genius) and of course the skinny man playing the Tuba. I've seen this singing guitarist in a few videos. He adds MUCH as does the Washboardist, who I have also seen in several...but I guess my point is, regardless of the lineup, they are so incredibly in tuned with each other. Thanks CANDCJ. You have repeatedly introduced me to TS, and I can't thank you enough!
